Q regarding Acrobat 9 Standard and Excel 2007

Using 9 Standard and Excel 2007, what settings do I need to change to create a pdf document that looks like my Excel print preview? Some of the graphs within our excel documents are large, say 3 graphs 5 inches wide each, which are then forced to fit the print area using excel's Fit-to page settings. When we attempt to convert these to pdf using 9 Standard, the graphs end up 5 inches wide each, and do not fit on the pdf page. These pages pdf perfecly using Pro 8 but not using 9 Standard. Unfortunately, I can not change the Excel documents, because we have multiple users, some with 9 Standard and others with 8 Pro, all using the same Excel documents.
Thanks in advance for any and all replies.
jim

Thank you for your reply, however the suggestion did not work. My original problem still exists: headers and footers are resized on each page, some so small they are unreadable. Also (much worse), I did a 'save-as' on a file created in XL 07, saving as XL 97-03. This caused a 'significant loss of functionality' within my file, affecting 286 different cells. I often use XL07's =IFERROR formulas which are not recognized in 97-03.
So... I still have only a partial solution. Adjusting the dpi settings allows me to successfully convert XL 07 files to pdf, but Acrobat 9 Standard is currently useless, because I can not add proper headers and footers.
Anyone else with suggestions? All replies appreciated.
Thanks
jim

BPC 7 : Excel 2003 and Excel 2007 Conflict

Hi Experts,
I have created a template in BPC 7 MS on my computer which has Excel 2003 version.
But when I try that template on another computer which has Excel 2007. The format (in the format Range) did'nt seem to work or it has diff effect on Excel 2007.
Is there really a conflict between them?? and cannot have different Microsoft Office version?? Or is there An Add-on that we have to Install so that Excel 2003 and Excel 2007 can be used at the same Time??
Thanks,
Bennie Jay

Sorin:
Situation
I also have the same issue with Excel formatting in Excel 2007, and I found a work-around specifically to my issue.
At the format section's CRITERIA, I have one entry: HEADING="New Budget" in the Column direction, apply certain color and number format to the cells of that column. However, I used Excel function CONCATENATE("HEADING=",EVDES("FINANCE",CATEGORY)) to come out with HEADING="New Budget", rather than just typing the string value.
With the above exercise, in Excel 2003 the format would apply no problem, but in Excel 2007, the entire formatting went wild and broke. After I dropped CONCATENATE() and just typed in HEADING="New Budget", the formatting applied OK in 2007.
Data
We are currently on BPC 5.1 SP5
The original report was built in Excel 2003
Question
Is there a setting in Excel that would allow me or bypass the restriction to use Excel functions to come out with CRITERIA definition?

Icloud 2.1 and excel 2007

There is a meanwhile well known issue using windows 7 and excel 2007 or 2010 and have iCloud version 2.0 or 2.1 installed:
Excel files with macros will be destroyed, you`ll get a message like" Excel found unreadable content - I don't know the right translation beause I use the german version. ("Von Excel wurde unlesbarer Inhalt in '[Datei]' gefunden. Möchten Sie den
Inhalt dieser Arbeitsmappe wiederherstellen? Wenn Sie der Quelle dieser Arbeitsmappe vertrauen, klicken Sie auf 'Ja'." - german version).
Is there anything new in iCloud version 2.1.1 - is this issue correced right now?
Until it is not corrected one have to use iCloud version 1.1 instead to solve the problem.

Look at this discussion:
Re: Excel 2007 problem opening xlsx files when iCloud control panel is installed
.... and the problem is still not solved (iCloud 3.1.0.40) and I guess will never be. We need to rename or delete the shellstreams.dll or save the excel-files as .xls to solve the problem for ourselves!
What a shame!

BEX and Excel 2007

Hi experts,
I want to know if BW BEX can use the 1million row capability of Excel 2007.
When I am exporting data to excel, it is giving a warning 'Maximum number of rows (65535) exceeded. Result is incomplete.'
This is the limit of excel 2003 version.
Any inputs to this will be highly appreciated.
Regards,
Uday.

Hello,
In order to keep the backward compatibility with other Excel versions, BEx Analyzer still have such limitation.
Here is a detailed explanation from SAP Development in this matter:
"Besides the further testing need, we also consider that there are still lots of customers who have not begun using Excel 2007. If there is no such restriction in Analyzer, there might be problem when they have a large number of data to be displayed in Excel 2002/2003.
Furthermore, BEx Analyzer is not a tool for the mass extraction of data, but a viewer/navigator tool for data. And due to the .NET Framework memory utilization limitation, there would be no more than 750,000 cells displayed in Analyzer. Please refer to note 1040454. If we consider the currently existing limitation of 65536 rows, this would mean something around 11 columns. Even when more rows are supported, the maximum number of cells that the .Net process can handle would not increase, which means the displayed columns would be very limited and not practical either.
If you have to display so many rows, you can consider executing the report in the Java Web. This would be a workaround.
We regret to say we could not provide more positive solutions. We are sorry for the inconvenience caused."
Kind Regards,
Marcio

Inquiry of Excel 2007 Compatability

I'm now using Excel 2007 (12.0.6425.1000 SP2) and Essbase (ESB9.3.1.2.0B007). However when I opened Query Designer, Excel prompted me an error message and forced me to close the Excel. Is this Essbase version compatable with Excel 2007? How can I open Query Designer? Please advise! Thanks for your support in advance!

BPC and Excel 2007

Can someone tell me what version/service pack of BPC is needed in order to run properly in Excel 2007?
Thanks!
Anthony

Anthony,
I am using BPC Sp3 so V.5.0.502.03 and I discovered problems in the Admin with Excel 2007!
As an admin I would not recommend yet to install Excel 2007, except if all admins are using it!
Just to let you know:
Here is a log I put on SAP Support Portal about this problem:
Short Text
Excel 2007 saving files in 2007 format but with an xls ext
Long Text
I have upgraded my Excel to 2007, but the default file format is in
Excel 2003 format. When I make changes to dimensions the file is being
saved as an xls (as opposed to an xlsx) file, but it is being saved in
the Excel 2007 format. This means that 2003 users can't open the file.
I have deliberately kept the default file version in excel to the 2003
format so that I don't have compatibility issues, but BPC seems to be
ignoring this settting and using the 2007 format anyway.
I can work around this by opening the file from Excel and resaving it,
but obviously this is a nuisance to keep having to do this. I do not
want to revert back to Excel 2003 just to avoid this problem
I am running BPC version 5.1 SP3
Steps for Reconstruction
Install Excel 2007, make the default file type Excel 97-2003. Use BPC
admin to make a change to a dimension, then try to make a change to the
same dimension on a machine that is running Excel 2003
Here is the answer they gave me:
Dear customer,
Thank you for contacting SAP Support Centre.
The problem is a known issue which has been reproted the dev team.
It will be fixed on bpc 7m.
The current workaround is:
1. Install 'Compatibility Pack for the 2007 Office system' file on
client has Office2003.
2. Change file extension 'xls' or 'xlt' to 'xlsx'.
3. Opent template
I wish this could be helpful to you.
Even in installing the compatibility pack did not solve this problem but it is only this problem i found and only in the Admin... but as an admin it is a major problem!!
So when you ask, the version of BPC working "properly"... i dont really know what to answer. Make your own opinion

XL Reporter with Windows Vista Basic and Excel 2007

Hi there,
I am facing a problem with my SAP Business One edition. I am using XL Reporter with my Windows XP Professional Edition and Microsoft Office 2003 and/or 2007, and it works perfectly, but when i try to connect my laptop, loaded with Windows Vista Basic edition and Microsoft Office 2007, it does not support.
When i try to add IXXLReporter.dll in Excel 07, it does not work, it neither shows me any error or any confirmation message. When i try to run XL Reporter from SAP, it starts process and hangs.
Can anybody tell me perfectly that whether SAP B1 is compatible with Vista Home Edition or not ...???
If it works, what changes i have to make in my SAP or Vista or Excel, please inform me soon. . .
Thanks
DhanraJ

I have tried all the above given instructions and suggestions. But still m not able to solve my problem. Anyways i have started using this in my another system, but still waiting for proper solution.
If anybody find answer please reply me.

HFM SDK and Excel 2007

Hi there,
is it possible to get HFM SDK working on Excel 2007 for an EPMA application?
I imported the .bas-file of the "ExtendedAnalyticsBatch"-Sample (VB6) in Excel and tried to get this work. But i cant't even import the necessary dll's.
Has anybody an idea to get this work or first of all to import the dll's? Or isn't it possible with this combination of SDK and Excel-Version?
Google doesn't help that much.
Thanks & best regards

Hi,
Please refer to the Note 1240811 - Known issues with BPC and Office 2007.

Acrobat 8 and Excel 2007 - drops elements

using acrobat in excel 2007 and converting spreadsheets to pdf's
no matter what settings i change or how i alter the charts, some chart
elements dont show on the pdf, text is fine it just seems to be chart shapes

If you are having problems creating a PDF, there are two steps you should do FIRST
Go to the appropriate vendor web site and apply all updates to the program you are using (several recent messages have concerned problems with MS Office conversion, with the response that different versions of Office have different BUGS that must be fixed by a download from Microsoft - and MS Office products are not the only ones which may, from time to time, need to be updated to work properly)
Go to the Acrobat update page and apply the updates for your version of Acrobat
IN NUMBER ORDER (updates are not cumulative so, using version 8 as an example, you must apply 8.1.0 before the 8.1.1 update)

Add-in and Excel 2007

Hi everyone, Does anybody know if essbase Add-in version 6.5.5 will work togehter with Excel 2007? I really cannot find any detail on this. Thanks in advance 

Chances are, your VBA code isn't broken because of the API, but because the old xls/xla workbook had a reference to the old excel object model. Go to the VBA editor and choose the Tools/References menu item. Look for any "missing" entries and perhaps the new version of excel has an equivalent. If a reference is missing, it can cause certain functions to lose their definition and it shows up as broken code (i.e. no definitions for string functions like len, format$, etc... is a frequent side effect). There is another possibility, a more pervasive and complicated one (at least to explain). Excel 2007 may be interpreting the module defines differently. The API modules with essbase use a patter like this: 1: Declare Function EssSomething1 Lib "esbapin.DLL" (etc...) 2: Declare Function EssSomething2 Lib "esbapin" (etc...) 3: Declare Function EssOtlSomething1 Lib "esbotln.DLL" (etc...) 4: Declare Function EssOtlSomething2 Lib "esbotln" (etc...) The first definition sort of "keys" the dll to the VBA module, so subsequent references don't particularly need the .DLL extension. The problem is that if the first use of the dll doesn't include the extension, the dynamic linking isn't always resolved properly. In at least one case, I've had to add the extension TO EVERY SINGLE DECLARE. This resolved my issue, and it wasn't especially difficult to do, but I have no definitive explanation for why it was necessary or what made to resolve the issue. So, do I recommend you try this fix? Only as a last resort. I'd check the references for missing modules first, as it's more likely to be an issue and it's really easy to do. HTH, -Doug.
